Grouping Rooms
Spa treatment rooms can be organised into groups for easier management and navigation in the Netbookings backend and POS system.
Rooms are organised into groups by their pricing group, not their room setup.
In the example above, you may want to group Treatments 1 to 4 and Private Baths 1 & 2. We have grouped them into ‘Dry Rooms’ and ‘Wet Rooms’. This can allow staff to see only certain room groups if needed for ease of use.
Grouping rooms requires us to:
- Create a list name in the ‘Grouping’ category (using Lists setup ). i.e. Wet Rooms
- Identify which Pricing Group our rooms belong to
- Apply Grouping list name to appropriate Pricing Group
See Pricing Groups and Room Setup, if not set, before creating room groups.
Create List name
Go to System>Setup>Lists
First select List type to be created. In this case ‘Grouping’
Click ‘New’. See already created ‘Grouping’ name – Dry Rooms
Enter name of new group and relevant details. Click ‘Save’ when finished to create group name.
Identify Pricing Group
Go to System>Setup>Room Setup. Find the relevant Spa treatment rooms that you wish to group. i.e Treatment 1-4. Note the ‘Group’ column indicates ‘Spa’ for these rooms.
We now know our pricing group for Treatments 1-4 is ‘Spa’
Assign Grouping name to Pricing Group
Go to System>Setup>Pricing Setup. Click on relevant Pricing Group. In our case, Spa.
Find new ‘Grouping’ name under ‘Group assignment’ drop menu. Select new group name for the Spa pricing group, Wet Rooms.
Click ‘Save’
View and use new group
New room group button, Wet Rooms, now appears in Spa>Rooms.
When button is clicked it will filter for the new Room Group.
